Rodman: Kim Jong-un ‘So Honest’

Holy cow, there really was a bromance struck up during Dennis Rodman’s trip to North Korea. In an interview on ABC’s This Week, Rodman said “I love him” of Kim Jong-un and also called the dictator “so honest.” “No, it’s not scary,” the former NBA star said of North Korea, which has some of the harshest prison camps in history. “It’s amazingly wild, man.” Repeatedly pointing out that Kim is just 28 years old, Rodman said he “hates the fact” that Kim has such a poor human-rights record, but Rodman insisted that Kim is “a human being, though.” Rodman also said Kim “just wants Obama to call him” and that Kim “don’t want war.”
